And younger people. We now have a sizable population of young adult technology users who have never known an operating system that wasn't full of ads, obfuscated cloud storage, paywalled everything and apps that won't run without an Internet connection. Adoption of an AI interface like this would seem intuitive and rational to these users, as they haven't really experienced agency within their tech environment to begin with.
My young students can't unzip a file or navigate to a folder that's inside too many other folders in a hierarchy
I keep being reminded of how big tech deliberately stunted younger users' abilities in order to keep them locked in Apple's or Android's walled gardens.
And I keep forgetting because it makes me so mad I don't want to think about it :/
